Manual Control (Apocalypse)

Manual control is a feature in X-Com Apocalypse. As opposed to the automated driving and interception in the game, the player can take manual control of a vehicle by pressing the "m" key. The available controls are listed below:

ESC	Exit manual control
Page Up	Increase speed
Page Down	Decrease speed
Home (flying vehicles)	Increase altitude
End (flying vehicles)	Decrease altitude
Home (ground vehicles)	U-turn
End (ground vehicles)	Overtake
Right mouse button	Set travel direction
Left mouse button	Fire weapon

Notes

• Flying vehicles will automatically change altitude to avoid crashing into buildings.
• Road vehicles can crash into other vehicles when under manual control. Both vehicles will be destroyed instantly.
• U-turns can be executed anywhere on a road, not only at junctions or the ends of roads.
• The "overtake" command will move the vehicle into the opposite lane. Care should be taken not to crash into an incoming vehicle.
